Gift from the Vine
BY:RossThe first time Josh and Dr Brent came to my house for dinner, they brought a very nice magnum of wine from Ridge Vineyards, a prestigious winery in the Santa Cruz Mountains, and some fresh eggs from their own chickens. I thought about this when Dr. Brent suggested several themes for my next posts. One [...]

Grilled Summer Squash
BY:Josh and BrentWhy is it that everyone plants zucchini even though it is blatantly obvious that one plant is enough to feed an entire village? (At Beekman 1802, we count ourselves among the guilty.) Rumor has it that it’s because of our fabulous recipe for grilled summer squash below. The zucchini is not the only prolific summer [...]

‘Corn Chowder’ Salad
BY:Josh and BrentHere are the varieties of corn we’ve chosen to grow in the BEEKMAN 1802 Heirloom Vegetable Garden this summer. Stowell’s Evergreen White Corn – 8 in. ears. One of the oldest named varieties of sweet corn in existence. It was developed by Nathan Stowell of Burlington, New Jersey in 1848. U. P. Hedrick said it [...]

Simple Roasted Potatoes
BY:Josh and BrentMore! It just may be constitutionally un-American to not like potatoes in some form or fashion. Is there another vegetable that we’ve found so many ways to prepare? This could be the reason that potatoes are the one type of vegetable that we never have enough of (even though we never give a single spud [...]

Green Bean Slaw
BY:Josh and BrentWHOEVER WAS THE FIRST TO SAY SOMETHING ‘DOESN’T AMOUNT TO A HILL OF BEANS’ obviously never planted a hill of beans. Because a hill of beans can produce a mountain of beans in no time at all. We sometimes go overboard with our bean planting. In the Beekman 1802 Heirloom Vegetable Garden this year we’ve [...]

Roasted Beet Salad
BY:Josh and BrentEveryone knows by now that we have somewhat of a love affair with fresh-from-the-garden vegetables. But just how far does that love go? For a long, long time, we drew the line at beets. A few sessions in psychoanalysis revealed this absence of affection to be the result of too many pre-adolescent run-ins with beets [...]

Two Cherry Bounce Cocktails
BY:Josh Kilmer-Purcell“Cherry Bounce” is one of this country’s oldest libations. Martha Washington even included her own special recipe in her writings: “Extract the Juice of 20 pounds of well ripend Morrella Cherrys Add to this 10 quarts of Old French brandy and sweeten it with White Sugar to your taste—To 5 Gallons of this mixture add [...]

Sour Cherry Pie
BY:Josh and BrentOne of our greatest discoveries after moving into The Beekman was the giant old pie cherry tree behind the house. Having first seen The Beekman in early winter, we were savvy enough to be able to identify the apple trees and lilac bushes, but we weren’t expert enough to correctly identify the cherry tree. It [...]

Sour Cherry Scones
BY:Josh and BrentBreakfast is big at The Beekman – for obvious reasons to anyone who’s visited. We seduce people with a well-laid out morning buffet, and then push ‘em out the door to do 10 hours of hard labor. One of the staples of our mornings are scones. We always have the ingredients on hand, and they’re [...]

Mrs. Engel’s Hungarian Cherry Strudel
BY:Josh Kilmer-PurcellRecently, when searching for a new use for our plentiful sour cherries, our friend (and wine columnist) Ross Wassermann suggested strudel. After researching recipes and complicated techniques, we suggested that Ross come help us out. Luckily, he agreed. Ross spent many years growing up in Sharon Springs, and remembers watching the owner of the Park [...]
